In the summer there's no better desert than a tart/sweet key lime pie -- and the best part of this one is that you don't have to go anywhere near that oven!
This little beauty was whipped up by my daughter for a "we're defrosting grandma's freezer" party that we had recently, so I thought I'd share it!
Easy Key Lime Pie
1 graham cracker crust (you could make this from scratch, but why?)
4 ounces key lime juice (you can use just regular lime juice, it just won't be as tart, and no you don't have to squeeze those limes, you can buy a little bottle of the stuff)
1 can sweetened condensed milk (the low fat stuff should work just as well as the "high test", just be sure its condensed, evaporated won't do it)
1 tub of cool whip (not the extra hugh size, just a regular tub)
green food color if you feel the need to make it look green
With your electric mixer, whip together the lime juice and the condensed milk (and the food color if you're going there) until well mixed.
Fold in cool whip
Pour into cracker crust
Chill for at least one hour before cutting
Enjoy!!

I used both fat free cool whip and sweetened condensed milk and it is yummy!
Yes, it most definitely was! I'll be purchasing those ingredients tomorrow, so I can "cook" some up for us. Yum!
